Hotpoint WMA58 Pump Wire Broke
Twisting together and electrical tape is not a safe fix with 110 volts and water around. You need crimp connectors and heat shrink sleeving.
Hotpoint Tumble Dryer keeps pausing
That sounds like an overheating problem. When the machine pauses, the blower fan stops running and that allows the heat to build up enough to trip the high level thermostat. You can test this by running a cool cycle.
Drive belts don't squeak because they are made of rubber. Things that do squeak are rear drum bearing, front bearings or drum slides, idler pulley wheels or the tension springs.
The machine needs a full strip down, cleaning, de-fluffing and lubrication. Also check the exhaust hose and the grill outside except it appears you have a condensing dryer. Make sure that unit is clean..

Machine stuck on F08
Hi there,
F08 indicates "Heater Relay stuck or Pressure Switch stuck on full".
You'll need a multimeter to be able to carry out some checks.
Check the heater for continuity, you should get a reading of around 25 ohms.
Check the pressure switch connections on the main pcb, usually J3
Check the pressure switch wiring and connections.
Chek the wiring at the heater for internal breaks. (The wire looks ok but when pulled snaps easily).
Check the pressure tube and chamber.
Unplug the appliance from the wall socket.
Take the lid off and locate the pressure switch.
Take off the thin tube attached to it and blow down the tube to try and clear any restrictions in the pressure hose or chamber.
Refit the tube and try the machine again.
If everything checks out ok, it would suggest that the main pcb will require replacing and the software written to it.
Thanks
